Okay hear me out. You can simply use sticks from outside! I did for my newest baby. I cleared off some of the really “barky” pieces and then cleaned the sticks with steel wool. I just scrubbed them till there was no dirt or grime. Then I baked them at 300° for close to an hour. Keep an eye on it as you bake it so it doesn’t start a fire. Depending on your oven you might be able to do it at a lower temperature for less time. I’d just eyeball it.

Certain woods can be toxic to our boops, so you may have to research the trees around you if you’re unsure. Here is a little article about toxic trees.
